Abstract

Calcium adipate monohydrate single crystals were grown by single gel diffusion technique using silica gel as a medium of growth. The powder X-ray diffraction revealed that the crystal belongs to the triclinic system with space group P-1(2). The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and micro-Raman spectroscopy were performed to identify all the functional groups present in the compound. The thermogravimetric analysis supported the suggested chemical formula of the grown crystal as Ca(C6H8O4)·H2O and the thermal stability of the material up to 103 °C. FTIR and Raman results at different phase changing temperatures were also reported. Diffuse reflectance measurement of the sample was carried out, and the optical band gap of the material was calculated at 5.3 eV. The dielectric behavior of the crystal was also studied by measuring the dielectric constant, dielectric loss and ac conductivity as a function of frequency at room temperature (30 °C).
